Default Warning: Lunch box tins from OTC!!!

I ordered several lunch box tins from the Oriental Trading Company on-line. They arrived today and are different from what is pictured on-line. They are significantly wider, have a smaller handle (and IMO a cheaper, flimsier handle), a ridge on the lid (making it difficult to cover with paper) and have a glossy finish. Upon further investigation I received what is pictured in the OTC Fun Expressions catalog under the same item code.

I called OTC and pointed out that I didn't receive what was advertised online and wished to return them. The lady in cs was VERY nice. They offered to let me keep them at half of what I paid for. I still didn't want the them and arranged to return the tins. They tried to not refund my original shipping fees, but when I stated that I wanted them refunded too they said okay.

So just a warning to you folks who might be ordering thinking you were getting the tins featured on-line (the ProvoCraft ones), you're not.

I just received some too - I haven't looked at them yet. I am going to do so when I get home. Thanks for the heads up.
